EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment in Rose Bay, Sydney, Australia during the years 1939 to 1944. The signpost featured in the image stands as a silent witness to the immense global distance traversed by brave merchant airmen during World War II. With its arrow pointing back towards home, this signpost symbolizes the airway that was once filled with hope and longing for those who fought on distant battlefields. The photograph's origins remain shrouded in mystery as it was created by an unknown artist. However, its inclusion in "Merchant Airmen - The Air Ministry Account of British Civil Aviation" published by His Majesty's Stationery Office in London in 1946 adds further significance to this powerful visual representation of wartime aviation. In this monochromatic scene, we see a gentleman standing beside the signpost at Rose Bay. He represents not only himself but also countless men who took part in these perilous journeys across vast distances. Their courage and determination are palpable through his presence. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War II. It transports us back to an era defined by conflict and uncertainty while highlighting humanity's unwavering spirit and resilience amidst chaos.
